I've been thinking too much
I just want to live now for a little while
And cast my dreams to the wind

On the road to Texas.

曲:Ellie My Love - Ray Charles

A 9 hour train journey from New Orleans, and we're in Houston, Texas, where the landscape cnt be any more different than the place we just left. Ans soon it will be a long long journey back to the west coast, but I'm kinda looking forward to it. Mercifully I do not get that horrible motion sickness that I tend to get when I'm on something moving, ie, buses, planes, erm lifts - you get the picture.

Now that I'm trying to stock up my Kindle library I'm back to Tom Holt again. He always makes me laugh, really. I somehow find him easier to absorb than Douglas Adams, but I suppose no one can contest the genius that was 42. Need those Japanese mystery writers to get their works translated as well. Hehehe.

Now, a bit of insightful reflection on my emotional status.. I suppose it's kind of messed up right now, but I accept that, seeing that I haven't been thinking so much for the longest time. Long train rides tend to do this to you, you know. Especially when the train is hurtling past scenery of little consequence and reception on the phone sporadic at best. It's time to go home, and get this tangle straightened out. I know you guys are worried, but I've been doing rather well recently, and am justifiably proud of myself. Wahaha. Oh, and the Kindle's an added blessing.

I cannot really understand my fascination with trains, really. But I'll try to explain with pictures soon.
